+INSTALLATION:
+
+Thank you for trying rdiff-backup.  To install, run:
+
+       python setup.py install
+
+The build process can be also be run separately:
+
+       python setup.py build
+
+The default prefix is /usr, so files are put in /usr/bin,
+/usr/share/man/, etc.  An alternate prefix can be specified using the
+--prefix=<prefix> option.  For example:
+
+       python setup.py install --prefix=/usr/local
+
+The setup script expects to find librsync headers and libraries in the
+default location, usually /usr/include and /usr/lib.  If you want the
+setup script to check different locations, use the --librsync-dir
+switch or the LIBRSYNC_DIR environment variable.  For instance,
+
+       python setup.py --librsync-dir=/usr/local build
+
+instructs the setup program to look in /usr/local/include and
+/usr/local/lib for the librsync files.
+
+Finally, the --lflags and --libs options, and the LFLAGS and LIBS
+environment variables are also recognized.  Running setup.py with no
+arguments will display some help.
+
+
+REQUIREMENTS:
+
+Remember that you must have Python 2.2 or later and librsync 0.9.7 or
+later installed.  For Python, see http://www.python.org.  The
+rdiff-backup homepage at http://rdiff-backup.nongnu.org/ should
+have a recent version of librsync; otherwise see the librsync homepage
+at http://librsync.sourceforge.net/.
+
+For remote operation, rdiff-backup should be in installed and in the
+PATH on remote system(s) (see man page for more information).
+
+The python modules pylibacl and pyxattr are optional.  If they are
+installed and in the default pythonpath, rdiff-backup will support
+access control lists and user extended attributes, provided the file
+system(s) also support these features.  Pylibacl and pxattr can be
+downloaded from http://pylibacl.sourceforge.net/ and
+http://pyxattr.sourceforge.net/.
+
+
+TROUBLESHOOTING:
+
+If you have everything installed properly, and it still doesn't work,
+see the enclosed FAQ.html, the web page at
+http://rdiff-backup.nongnu.org/, and/or the mailing list.
